Artificial intelligence has become a powerful force in modern talent acquisition, reshaping how organisations screen candidates, match skills, and analyse hiring outcomes.

For years, salary transparency was dismissed as an idealistic HR experiment — something progressive companies advocated but few dared to implement.

Kaplunk was created to remove that uncertainty. And from day one, we made a deliberate choice: if we were going to challenge the norms of an industry worth tens of billions of pounds annually, we needed to build something fundamentally different—and fundamentally safer.

Organisations that embed ethical hiring now will stand out in the future talent landscape.

It’s the difference between being present in the room and feeling in the room. That’s where Kaplunk steps in, not just as a recruitment or employer branding platform, but as a catalyst for belonging.

What once felt optional or progressive is now fundamental to how candidates engage with employers.

Organising team-building activities and informal gatherings allows new employees to build relationships and feel more comfortable in their new environment.

In the competitive world of job hunting, many candidates are tempted to turn to recruitment agencies for help. 

In the ever-evolving landscape of recruitment, businesses are increasingly recognising the pivotal role that direct hiring plays in enhancing candidate quality and retention rates.
